Hahaha, so much LOL factor in this second episode.Kagami taunting Murasakibara was hilarious. Riko-kantoku's yandere moments. Momoi saying "even though you're B" killed me as it did in the manga. And Kagami being tactless and everyone scolding him.Jeeeesus, this season is gonna be so awesome. Kuroko's drive at the end was also super cool.

I really respect how they're handling characters like Midorima and Kise. Normally in shounens, when the MC beats the boss at the time, they end up becoming allies and infinitely weaker than the MC through the addition of newer and more powerful enemies. But they haven't done that with these two. Midorima is still a badass and can still go head to head with Seirin (and possibly even beat them), and Kise is now just as strong as Aomine. They're still a force to be reckoned with and not just stepping stones for MC to power up, which is cool to see.

do they ever explain how kuroko's vanishing drive works? the thing I like about this series is all the moves they have used up until this point are grounded in reality. however just having kuroko vanish completely without anyone knowing how its happening, even people watching from the sidelines, it starting to push it a bit

gotta love how the refs are completely useless in these sports series, although that's not all that different from a lot of RL games. speaking of which, if they knew that the other team was going to be playing dirty, why isn't someone in the stands with a video recorder, or heck just their phone, recording everything they are doing? considering they have injured the star players of every team they've gone up against this would fall into the common sense category, but then that's bringing logic into the situation which goes against the theme of this series heh

I gotta say even with all the feels in this episode, the scene that most sticks in my mind was when aomine fell for that trap in the beginning of the ep lolz
